Chapter 549: Gene Molan's feat
Feng Chen was stunned for a long time with his eyes open, and then he realized that it was not too early, but that he was sleeping in the shadow of a behemoth. Fengshan Long Wei'an's body covered the already bright sky, and if it weren't for the familiar feeling coming from the dragon's cavity, he would even think that this was a crumbling stone mountain.
The inner lining of the boy's hunting suit stuck uncomfortably to his body, and the sand behind him was still wet, with the smell of Lake Locklac water. He sat up, tossed his clumps of hair haphazardly, rubbed his eyes and looked around.
"Meat, firewood, and herbs." The dragon lazily moved its front paws and pushed a mess of things to the boy's side, "The water is over there, you can see it when you dig up the floating sand...... I haven't done this in years, so I don't know if it's enough. If there's anything else you need, you can let me know. β
The one-star hunter sneezed at the strong smell of fish, only to discover that between the unknown pile of succulents and firewood was the corpse of a sand fish dragon. The monsters obviously haven't been dead for long, probably caught by the ancient dragons on their way back last night. There are at least twenty strange fish in front of him, which is enough for the little hunter to eat for a month, and I am afraid that Gu Long will prepare breakfast for him in proportion to the amount of gluttonous food.
"Where am I?" Feng Dust picked up the blue dorsal fin of a sand fish dragon, and the monster's cold scale armor still had water stains on it.
"Desert." Fengshan didn't lift his dragon's head, his tail and two teeth were buried in the sand, "Eat something, use medicine, you are still very weak, I need you to recover as soon as possible." β
The one-star hunter threw down the fish corpse in his hand, the emptiness in his eyes gradually turned to helplessness and mockery, and he controlled the remaining water stains in his ears, "So, you attacked the most important city in the entire continent, and you want to bask in the sun here and pretend that nothing happened?" β
"I told you that true dragons never cared about the lives of humans." Fengshan Dragon replied casually, as if talking about the weather on the sand sea, "On the way to this area, I killed dozens of sand fish dragons. Even if I kill another hundred, you won't be angry about itβthe only difference between you and these little fish in my eyes is that you're just a little useful. β
"A real dragon I've ever seen is willing to take the initiative to die for the sake of the lives of the people." The boy stood up and stumbled along the dragon's side towards its head, "I thought you all paid more attention to the rules of true dragons. β
"It's just a rule that a few of the most ancient people came up with when they were bored to have fun." The giant whale still didn't care, "What's more, even if I have the obligation to protect my people, humans are not included. β
"Imp, do you know how you're different from other monsters?" Fengshan Dragon obviously closed his eyes, but the bursts of coercion that came out of the dragon's cavity pressed on the top of Feng Chen's head like a cold gaze.
"What?" The spirit was not fully recovered, and under the shock of the ancient dragon, the young man's legs were weak, and he hurriedly held the monster's stone scales so that he did not fall.
"You don't have the concept of 'rank' or 'race' in you, it's something that all other monsters have in their blood, the former makes them less arrogant, the latter makes them less selfish. So arrogant and selfish, that's what human beings are. I provide shelter to all the monsters in the sea of sand, but for you, it is my greatest kindness to leave you to your own devices. β
"I have appeared in front of countless groups like that, they will fear me, flatter me, be hostile to me, and even attack me, but they are all acting as a 'race', making the same performance, making the same voice. No race is as chaotic as humanity - I still cannot understand why my presence would justify the killing of your fellow by some of yours. At times, human intelligence has led me to mistakenly believe that your little body is inhabited by one of my kind, but more often than not, you are naΓ―ve than the lowest-level monsters. β
"That's not the reason why you just appeared in the sky over Locklac, frightened the ordinary people all over the city, and hurt thousands of lives!" Recalling the wind and rain that filled the city last night and the people in the city who worshiped down out of fear, Feng Chen was furious, and his eyebrows were furrowed heavily. The young man's current strength is far from enough to make the ancient dragon species pay the price, and he can only hope to find some benefits in his tongue.
"I'm a real dragon, and I don't need a reason to do what I want to do." Fengshan Long talked to himself.
"Okay......" The one-star hunter finally gave up arguing in despair, human morality was all nonsense in front of the ancient dragons. It's just that under the dragon's cavity, the boy can communicate with the giant beast in front of him without any obstacles, and sometimes he will forget that the two belong to different races, "You have spent so much trouble to dry half of the lake, and what have you only got?" A stone pillar? β
"You mean that?" The mountain dragon opened its mouth and exhaled softly, and the surrounding sand and gravel trembled under the dragon's control. From the other side of the monster's body, the giant tooth was held up by the whirlwind, slowly rising from below the sand, showing a rough and concave texture in the sunlight
"Locklac's Totem ......" sealed the dust and had a dry mouth.
"That's my teeth, the only part of my last body left in the world." Gu Long thought for a moment and added, "It's my mother's relic." β
"So, the legend that has been passed down in Locklac is true." The boy's pores trembled, he didn't expect that he could get in touch with the secrets of the hunter world so closely.
"It's much more complicated than the human version, and just piercing the rock formations and digging out a spring certainly doesn't help." Fengshan Long explained like a treasure. "It wasn't easy for her to dig a lake out of that boulder and divert hundreds of kilometers of groundwater from the surrounding area to ensure a steady flow of water."
The whale raised its head towards the towering stone pillar, and a small whirlwind of rapid rotation erupted from its fangs for no apparent reason. The wind swept down from the top of the pillar, like an invisible blade cutting through the surface of the stone teeth. Over the years, the stony tissue of the pillar has been added to peel off, revealing a smooth blue-gray tooth enamel within.
"In that sense, the people who live in that rocky city today are my people." Gu Long slashed a few more times, and the remaining hard stone shell fell like tofu on the sand in the wind and shattered into several pieces.
Even if you're accustomed to hearing about the incredible things that natural disasters can do, it's hard to imagine how any living thing could single-handedly lay the foundation for the development of the most prosperous and important cities in the entire New World. Wisdom, courage, courage and unparalleled strength, when these are combined, can only be summed up in two words: "miracle". The young man couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and unconsciously asked, "Your mother, what happened to her?" β
"She died, and she got her wish." Gu Long replied in a gloomy manner, "Reacquaint, my name is Jean Moran. In this body is both myself and my mother. β
